I don't like her stand up at all but that's pretty crazy that she got the pull to get that pay raise on par with two GOATs too nonetheless
Edit: never mind haha

Well well well, time for some people to do some backpedaling
Amy Schumer says she doesn't deserve to be paid as much as Chris Rock or Dave Chappelle.
Exactly what I was saying. There's a difference between men and women having equal pay and Amy Schumer having equal pay to Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle.

Women get paid less than men -> "well maybe they should learn to negotiate like men do!"
Woman negotiates for higher pay, is successful -> "fuck that she doesn't deserve it!"
Yeah exactly. It really makes me smh.itt people unironically demonstrate how there's automatic pushback on women that 'speak up' for themselves rather than just accepting what they're given
tl;dr
The issue people had was quantifying it by her talent, as if she was saying she was as good as them. Using the higher paid people in your field as a standard for negotiations doesn't mean you think you are as good as them, hell it doesn't even really mean she thinks she should get paid as much as them. Based on that article, she asked for the moon, and Netflix offered a little less than the moon, but still more than they had originally offered. Negotiations how do they work?

That should have absolutely nothing to do with it. If she's popular and brings in ratings then that alone should be the determing factor.If she'd been doing standup for as long as either Chappelle or Rock have, then sure, she deserves it. She hasn't, though.
Ummm she is saying exactly what the article said. She negotiated a higher pay after seeing what they were getting.
I mean. White women have advantages over Black men and women, and it's a fundemental misunderstanding of wage equity if white women don't understand the factors at play here.
A Black comedian with Amy's talent would not have a career. Because Black people have to be in a league in their own to perhaps get what they deserve.
And even though she recanted, she doesn't have the resume of Dave and Chris. She's the Abigail Fisher of comedy.

Higher pay, not equal.

She's not even in the same universe as Dave Chappelle, please. Please. Like, seriously. Please.
I'm all for equal pay, regardless of gender, skin color or beliefs, but some people get better paid than others because they're simply better at the job. I wouldn't pay someone like Gabigol the same as I would Messi, and it's not because I'm discriminating against my boy Gabigol, it's simply because Messi is way better.
Would you fault him if he went to his team and said "I want to be paid as much as Messi" and negotiated down from there?
He would probably get laughed at, and deservedly so. Inter is trying to sell him for peanuts and change, after the terrible season he had.Would you fault him if he went to his team and said "I want to be paid as much as Messi" and negotiated down from there?

But this is Gabigol ok.
Good for her.
Chris Rock standup in 2017 is garbage fwiw.
Also, lmfao at some posters thinking Schumer's statement somehow validates their shitty opinion that she doesn't "deserve" what she asked for.

She deserves how much she gets and negotiated for.
Take a negotiation course. This is a good one:

Kinda weird responses here. Much of the gender income gap comes from the fact that women are less to negotiate compensation compared to men. Here, a well known and popular comic does it, and she's getting tarred and feathered.
I've seen very little of Amy Schumer. I'm surprised so many people that apparently dislike her are so we'll versed with her catalogue of standup work.
What am I reading? You're disingenuous. The issues surrounding gender pay gap are completely different. Sealing the gender pay gap is to want the same amount of money for the same amount of work for the same job. This is more of a talent pay gap. She signed a contract, then wanted Chris Rock and Dave Chapelle money.
You seriously see no issue with that?
The specific Netflix special the topic is about is insultingly horrible, filled with "jokes" about her sluttyness, how fat she is and how big her vagina is.
Who cares what she 'deserves'? Get as much as you can. If it's more than you 'deserve', that's someone else's problem. She could justify a bit extra just for all the shit she gets for being an opinionated woman.
Yeah for sure, if she pulled numbers then good on her, she deserves the money. But as a comedian ive barely heard of, she's gonna need to explain why she deserves the same amount of money as a guy that had the best selling DVDs of all time at one point and a guy with multiple Grammys and starring roles in huge movies, both who have been doing comedy for DECADES
